[Game] Starwars: Force Unleashed - Special Sith Edition (PC Version)

[Klaus]

So the game is out for the PC after they promised "This will never come out for the PC".
What console fans said to be one of the best Starwars games ever, looks like a PS1 game on the PC. The controls are horrible although you dont need much for this simple button masher. AI looks like it came from 1997 (Enemies see you and run into walls, off cliifs, etc..) and except running in a streight corridors taking down tons of enemies until the boss guy - there's really not much to this game.

3/10 in my opinion

P.S. this port is such bullcrap, when you click on "keyboard" it shows you a picture of a Xbox 360 controller.

well Lucas Arts isnt exactly known for its PC quality since a few years

It's a boring button masher that feels more like a tech demo for their physics engine than an actual Star Wars game.
On the one hand it's only interesting for Star Wars fans because other than physics and Star Wars it doesn't have a lot to offer, but on the other hand it doesn't capture what Star Wars is about at all so even fans should be pretty disappointed.
So, imo it's fun toy with the physics for a little while, but I assume if you are interested in that you could just play the demo and be done with it.

My little brother is a Star Wars nut and even he had enough of this game after he had played the demo.

Looks like I will get it for free or when the price dropped to 10€

I already could tell from the latest game play footage it would suck. It is getting really obvious now that Lucas Arts is only making video games for the money nowadays every Star Wars game in the last 10 years sucked pretty hard (maybe KotoR not ) they completely lost their roots

 

[BlackLabel]

Agreed. If they whould have at least a little sense about what made them great IN THE PAST they whould push a online TIE vs. Xwing allready...

 

[Murphy]

(maybe KotoR not )

What do you mean 'maybe'? KotoR was great (on pc! The console ports were horrible. Didn't look nearly as good and ran bad). And on its own merits too, it wasn't just mooching off of Star Wars. Can't say the same for many other recent Star Wars game though.

 

[Lt_Kettch]

I know everybody loved KotoR but it wasn't my type of game and I didn't like the story so much

 

[Murphy]

Fair enough.

 

[Klaus]

Tried to give it another chance.. its not that horrible but defiently not amazing or good.. I might try it out one day when ill be bored

Same here.

 

[Klaus]

This game has one of the worse, most annoying and frustrating boss levels in the history of computer games.
That scene is so difficultly annoying and evil that it completely ruins the already medicore game.
(Its the scene where you need to pull down the Star Destroyer, absolute crap!)
